Abundance: The Future Is Better Than You Think by Steven Kotler
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Well, this was a hopeful book about the triumphant potential of human technology - it has continually proven the Malthusians wrong. Some of the examples are amazing, like the device that can make pharmaceutical grade water from a dank ditch or chemical run off and a future Tricorder for medical assessment in the field. I found intriguing the proven success of prize motivations as a way to leverage public money, not surprising since the author is one of the people behind the xprize.
